Grinning I leant back on the couch. "Well, you have certainly become braver since we last met"

He smirked, "What makes you say that?"

"Well, its no dove you've chosen for the family nest, but a proud eagle. She is wild, tempestuous, unruly oh yes and pregnant with another man's child"

He choked on his drink, "What…damn, well how about the other one with her, the slight little blonde…"

"Oh Kitty wouldn't interest you. Throw a fist and she would whimper like a dog, Rogue though-Marie- hit her and she would snarl and gnash her teeth. Breaking her in would be an adventure and with her pregnant the jobs already half done"

He coughed modestly, "I think you overestimate me sister, Kitty sounds like the one for me. I don't want something I have to keep a leash on and lock up day and night. I want something I can summon when I'm bored and throw away when I'm done"

"Hmm" pretending to think over this piece of information, I sought to help my argument "but as you said before you want someone who knows her way around a bedroom, look at the way Rogue walks, her very air is seductive. Kitty- oh she already has a man- a mutant as well brother, one who would kill you in an instant. Rogue though, she's unprotected, and as her belly grows her spirit will shrink, she'll be ashamed. You will be her knight in shining armour and she will see the world in you"

Robert relented, "Well darling you do have a good point" he kissed my hand, "Now, let me stay a while, just until I've caged my eagle"
